Planning a Meatless Meal

April 9, 2018

Do you plan a MeatlessMonday? At our house, we try to have at least one plant-based dinner night a week to both be more budget conscious, but also for those health benefits such as lowering the risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. In most meatless meals you will find that they are focused on 4 food groups: beans, lentils, vegetables, and whole grains.

Eating more plant-based meals makes your diet more like the Mediterranean diet and all these vegetarian options are most likely going to save you money too! My favorite go-to MeatlessMonday meal is one from Skinny Taste - Sweet Potato Irish Nachos! Most of my patients have heard me talk about these and have probably tried them too!
